NEW
YORK, Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --Tuya Smart (NYSE: TUYA, HKEX: 2391), the global
cloud platform service provider today introduced a new smart door
lock solution that supports both the Matter protocol and home key
in Apple Wallet. This allows users to seamlessly and securely add a
home key to Apple Wallet to access and unlock their homes with a
simple tap of an iPhone or Apple Watch.
Users can add their home key to Apple Wallet after an initial
set up. The setup process is straightforward:
- First, after installing the smart door lock, the user should
put the device into pairing mode.
- Next, open the Home app and scan the Matter QR code on the door
lock to add it to the app.
- Once added, a "virtual home key" will instantly appear in the
user's Apple Wallet.
- Finally, users can set a PIN code within the Home App, enabling
them to unlock the door using the PIN code.
- They can hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near a smart lock for
convenient access.
With Express Mode, users don't need to wake or unlock their
device to use their home key—they can simply hold their device near
a reader.
By leveraging Tuya's Solution for Matter, this smart door lock
seamlessly integrates with Apple Home. iPhone, iPad, and Mac users
can easily manage the door lock using the Apple Home App.
Home key in Apple Wallet takes full advantage of the privacy and
security features already built into iPhone and Apple Watch. Data
is encrypted and protected against tampering and theft, and Apple
cannot see when and where a user uses a home key in Wallet.
At CES 2025, this smart door lock solution captivated attendees,
sparking widespread curiosity and drawing crowds who were eager to
explore its innovative design and seamless integration of Tuya's
solutions. In addition to NFC access, the product supports multiple
unlocking methods, including palm vein recognition, password entry,
and app based unlocking, ensuring a smooth and versatile
door-opening experience for users across various scenarios.
As an early adopter and advocate of the Matter protocol, Tuya
remains steadfast in its mission to advance the global
implementation of Matter-enabled smart devices. Supporting home key
in Apple Wallet represents a significant milestone in Tuya's
broader strategy to align Matter product solutions with other
leading ecosystems. To date, Tuya has earned over 200 Matter
certifications, spanning five major categories: electrical devices,
lighting, gateways, sensors, and home appliances. These
certifications cover an array of smart home products, including
light bulbs, LED strips, switches, gateways, sockets, sensors,
curtains, and thermostats, showcasing Tuya's comprehensive
capabilities in the smart home domain.
